"The song is very fresh and has its own color of f(x)", their agency, SM Entertainment, said. "Fans can have big expectations".

The quintet has been drawing a lot of pre-release attention with teaser images of its members wearing animal masks.

The agency said that group will begin their comeback with a Thursday performance on Mnet's "M Countdown".
